Sunnyside Educational Foundation: “We recently worked with a mother of two children who has now had COVID twice. The first time, she was out of work for two weeks, but her employer paid her. The second time, she was told she had exhausted her COVID pay and did not receive her full paycheck. She is currently the only one working, and the family is struggling to pay bills. To add to their financial troubles, her car broke down over the weekend, and her next paycheck needs to go towards those repairs. The Sunnyside Educational Foundation is using United Way COVID funds to cover for utility bills to help cushion the blow of the family’s other sudden expenses.”
